The Frieda Lawrence Collection of D. H. Lawrence Manuscripts, E. W. Tedlock, Jr. — First Edition

Publication: Albuquerque, University of New Mexico Press, 1948

Formatting: 8vo, pp. [xxxix], 333.

Condition Report: Very Good. The book maintains its structural integrity with a tight binding and no major flaws or tears. The dark cloth boards exhibit typical minor signs of careful use and storage, most notably a superficial, pale scuff to the front board. The spine remains relatively crisp with its red title label and gilt lettering still distinct, albeit with slight rubbing. The text block edges are a touch age-toned with very faint spotting (foxing), but the pages within remain clean, bright, and free from significant defects.

Catalogue Note: First edition. This thorough and meticulously researched bibliography was compiled in conjunction with Frieda Lawrence, providing an essential academic record of D. H. Lawrence's surviving manuscripts.

The present copy is bound in its original dark cloth with a distinctive red spine label titled in gilt. While often encountered with a dust jacket, this copy is offered without one, presenting cleanly in its primary binding. It stands as a reliable, highly functional reference copy for the Lawrence scholar or collector.

Compiled with the direct assistance and blessing of D. H. Lawrence's widow, Frieda, this descriptive bibliography offers an unparalleled window into the creative process of one of the twentieth century's most significant literary figures. E. W. Tedlock, Jr. exhaustively details the physical characteristics, provenance, and content of Lawrence's surviving manuscripts, diaries, and correspondence. A foundational text for any serious study of Lawrence's life and literary evolution, it remains an indispensable tool for researchers and bibliophiles alike.

Book Condition Guide

We stock thousands of books in a wide range of conditions. To make things clear and to help you know exactly what to expect, Please refer to these condition categories to understand the condition of the book you will receive.

Condition	Description
New	A brand-new, unread and professionally handled book. Carefully preserved from publication to purchase, these books are offered in the best attainable condition. This grade applies to recently published titles that have not entered long-term storage.
As New	The book is in pristine, original condition as if just published. No signs of use or handling. The dust jacket (if present) is equally flawless. This grade applies to any book that has remained untouched in storage for years.
Fine	The book is close to As New. It remains bright and attractive, but could show minor imperfections to the boards and/or dust jacket (if present). Its pages are typically clean and unmarked.
Near Fine	The book has a number of small flaws, i.e. slight rubbing to the edges, or tiny chips or creases to the dust jacket (if present). Its pages may have faint marks, or creases that are barely perceptible — nothing that detracts from their overall condition.
Very Good	The book maintains its structural integrity, and has no major flaws such as tears to its binding or pages. It may, however, show signs of careful use, handling, or storage — small marks and creases, light foxing. Its dust jacket (if present) remains fully intact, but small tears may be present.
Good	A book that remains intact and readable with complete text pages, but shows moderate signs of wear and use to both the book and dust jacket (if present). It may have noticeable creases, nicks, or stains, and the spine likely shows fading, bumping, and rubbing. There could be writing, underlining, and other marks on some pages, though the majority will be clean and tidy.
Fair	A book with significant wear or damage. The text pages will be complete, but there may be heavy underlining, highlighting and staining throughout, and the book’s endpapers, half-title, and copyright pages could be damaged or missing. The binding could be loose, and the dust jacket (if present) may have notable scuffs or tears. These copies are usually of interest for content, signature(s) or scarcity.
Poor	A heavily worn book whose value lies in its complete and legible text. A poor book will have substantial defects — loose joints or hinges, detached covers, loose and/or missing pages, and could be heavily soiled. A poor book is also known as a reading copy, and although compromised, can hold historical or bibliographic significance.
